Members: Please take this survey for our sport’s sake!

The SSAA needs your help to map out the future of recreational hunting and sports shooting in Australia. The National Recreational Hunting and Sports Shooting Survey is open now and we need as many members as possible to participate.

The survey, commissioned by the Federal Government Department of Sport under Minister Bridget McKenzie, is a chance to show the wider Australian community our economic worth as well as how important hunting and sports shooting activities are to our physical and mental wellbeing.

Make no doubt about it, this survey and its results are vitally important. You have an opportunity to participate in something that has never been done before on this scale and possibly never will be again. The results will be used for years to come to develop and shape policy. We need as many hunters and/or sports shooters to complete the survey to provide the best data possible.

In short, the survey asks questions relating to:

• Your spending associated with recreational hunting and shooting;
• The impact of recreational hunting and shooting on your physical health;
• The social benefits of recreational hunting and shooting in general.

The survey is anonymous with no identifying questions and, being such a comprehensive study, contains 38 questions. Please set aside 15 minutes so you can complete it in full.
